Abstract

Turbulence transport equations, describing the dynamics of transient flow of an incompressible fluid in arbitrary geometry, have been derived in such a manner as to incorporate the principles of invariance (tensor and Galilean) and universality. The equations are described in detail and their applicability is demonstrated by comparison of solutions with experiments on turbulence distortion and on the turbulence in the flow between flat plates.
